lJnited States Department of the Interior BUREAU OF INDIAN AFFAIRS WASHINGTON, D.C. 20245 JU N - 8 1984 IN REPLY REFER TO: Tribal Government Services-FA MEMORANDUM To: Assist~mt Secretary - Indian Affairs From:AcUng De~luty Assistant Secretary - Indian Affairs (Operations) Subject: Reeommendation and summary of evidence for proposed finding against Feceral acknowledgment of the Principal Creek Indian Nation East of the Mississippi of Alabama pursuant to 25 CFR 83. RECOMMENDA nON We recommend that the Principal Creek Indian Nation East of the Mississippi (PCN) not be acknowledged as an Indian tribe entitled to a government-to-government relationship with the United Stlltes. We further recommend that a letter be forwarded to the petitioner advising them of the proposed finding, and that a notice of the proposed finding that they do not exist as an Indian· tribe within the meaning of Federal law be published in the Federal Register. GENERAL CONCLUSIONS The Principal Creek Indian Nation East of the Mississippi is an organization of Creek descendants formed in 1969 at Florala, Alabama. The membership does not now and has not historically formed a community distinct from surrounding populations. It is not a formalization 0: a previously existing community and has no historical link other than descendancy of its members with the historical Creek Nation. It has only been identified as an Indian enti ty since its formation in 1969 and no identi"fications were found of predecessor communities. Membership has varied significantly during the organization's existence, and is eurrently much narrower than when it was originally formed. Significant political authority or' other political processes have not operated within the group since its formation and no antecedent leaders or community within which political processes might have operated were found to have existed. -
UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE Pretty Girl Inside Now
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE Pretty Girl Inside Now Thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing and Writing for the Performing Arts by Aleksandr Conrad Peterson June 2014 T hesis Committee: Professor Michael Jayme, Chairperson Professor Susan Straight Professor Charmaine Craig Copyright by Aleksandr Conrad Peterson 2014 The Thesis of Aleksandr Conrad Peterson is approved: Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside Acknowledgments I first thank my committee members for their dedicated reading and critiquing of this novel. Your comments have cause many small heartaches along the way, but saved me from large ones in the future. I especially appreciate Michael's relentless support and encouragement, specifically his admonition to keep working and “remember [him] after Labor Day.” I thank my longsuffering wife for the grace she's extended during these two years of late nights juxtaposed with early mornings. This book has consumed me, at times, but I love you more. I t is perhaps odd to thank something so abstract as a deity. Yet, God has provided my imagination with the places, characters, and truths that became this book, which is far from abstract. And so I do thank Him. iv For Brittany v CHAPTER I Alice has been cleaning sneakers for several months now at the Fresh Kicks kiosk in the mall. If she were to leave her counter, take the escalator to the upper level, walk past the custom imprints shop and the Looking Fine men's store and the massage booth run by the Cambodian man whose soliciting voice is so loud she can hear it on the lower level, and if she were brave enough to look left then, across from Sally's Saltwater Taffy, she would see the Millennium Diamond store where her ex-husband bought her engagement ring in a time that seemed both more dispiriting and more purposeful than her life now. -
Chapter 11. Conclusion: Ohlone/Costanoan Cultural Affinities
Chapter 11. Conclusion: Ohlone/Costanoan Cultural Affinities The Ohlone/Costanoan peoples of the San Francisco Bay and Monterey Bay areas were different from one another in language and culture in the ancient past, at the time of Spanish contact, in their Mission Period histories, and in their twentieth-century community reformations. Thus the ethnographic local tribes of the San Francisco Peninsula, who have only one known descendant family today, have more ties of historic continuity to todays Ohlone/Costanoans from other parts of the San Francisco Bay Area than they do with today’s Ohlone/Costanoans of the Monterey Bay Area. In the 1770s the San Francisco Peninsula was divided among separate local tribes—Aramai, Chiguan, Cotegen, Lamchin, Oljon, Puichon, Ssalson, Urebure, and Yelamu—all of whom are presumed to have spoken the Ramaytush dialect of the San Francisco Bay Costanoan language. By 1820 their elders were gone and their young people, by then Spanish-speaking Doloreños of Mission Dolores, were raising children with spouses that were often from distant groups, Bay Miwoks, Coast Miwoks, and Patwins. Over the next 100 years even the children of the old Doloreños disappeared from the public stage. Only one descendent family of San Francisco Peninsula Ohlone/ Costanoans can now be identified. The family descends from Francisca Xaviera of the Aramai local tribe (of modern Pacifica) and her husband Jose Ramos (from Tulanzingo, Mexico), who married at Mission Dolores in 1783. Their children and grandchildren considered themselves to gente de razón, and were so considered within the hierarchal world of early Hispanic California. Their modern descendents , who carry the surnames Cordero, Robles, and Soto, among others, have not participated as Indians in the modern cultural or political arenas. -

One Family's Life in Post-Civil War Central Pennsylvania
One Family’s Life in Post-Civil War Central Pennsylvania by Milton Loyer, 2002 This article is a story within a story. The inner story is the daily account of a New Cumberland area extended family immediately following the Civil War. That story is presented in a series of letters from the Kohler family in Pennsyl- vania to their Bovenmyer relatives in Iowa. Luke 2:52 states that Jesus increased in wisdom and in stature and in favor with God and man – suggesting that we are beings with four dimensions: mental, physical, spiritual and social. The Kohler- Bovenmyer letters chronicle growth and development in each of these areas over an extended period. The outer story is the account of how the letters were acquired by con- ference archives, and the amazing series of relationships that unfolded as back- ground material was gathered to interpret both the content and the context of the correspondence. The Chronicle wishes to thank all those from Pennsylvania to California, from Iowa to Texas, who have provided information and spent countless hours of research to produce the article in the form in which it is now presented. The Story behind the Letters In the search for materials relevant to United Methodism in Central Penn- sylvania, the conference archives noticed five post-Civil War letters for sale at a modest price. They were written in New Cumberland and purported to tell of protracted meetings, a Negro camp meeting, and other religious phenomena. Since both the Methodists and the United Brethren were active at that time in the area, and since the references to protracted meetings and camp meetings made it highly probable that at least one of these predecessor United Methodist denomina- tions was involved, the letters were purchased. -
Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least. -

Janos 1 Men Of
Janos 1 Men of God: An Eight Chapter Creative Thesis Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with research distinction in English in the Undergraduate Colleges of the Ohio State University By Andrew Janos The Ohio State University May 2017 Project Advisor: Marcus Jackson, Department of English Janos 2 Chapter 1: Men of God A gun barrel to the head; that’s all Mark, the youngest member of the group, saw as he carefully caressed the trigger. The man at the receiving end sat still with tears running down his face. A small stream of blood travelled from his nostrils. His black eye looked like a patch of scorched earth. It matched the leather seats of the car, now torn and split with tufts of cotton falling out. Wearing a cold calculated expression, Garret sat in up front. As Lawrence drove he kept his face forward with a stern expression, letting his fedora block his eyes in the rear view mirror. “Where’d he say we need to go?” Garret asked while rubbing his switchblade with his handkerchief. The bloodied man cringed and forcefully swallowed. “Towards the old junkyard,” Lawrence said making a slow right turn down a side road. The old leather of his gloves cracked as he moved his hands along the wheel. “Why should we worry about where we throw out this son of a bitch? It’s not like he’s gonna find out we threw him in the river,” said Mark. The man sniffled as the revolver was pushed farther into his head. -

Excelsior! By Alex Convery GRANDVIEW / Zac Frognowski / Faisal Kanaan UTA / Ramses IsHak / Michael Sheresky / Jordan Lonner OVER BLACK The opening chords of “A BEGINNING” by The Beatles. Fluttering strings, soft before -- EILEEN (V.O.) What did you want? INT. BOARD ROOM - DAY TITLE CARD READS: 2005 STAN LEE, 83, sits behind a table. His gray hair, at least what’s left of it, is SLICKED BACK. His half moon brown eyes are hidden behind his iconic SHADED GLASSES, tinted like the windows of a sports car. The table sits in a beautiful board room. Wide windows look out over the shimmering New York skyline. Middle aged men and women in pressed suits fill the other seats. The place reeks of fuck you money and six figure retainers. Directly across from Stan is EILEEN, 40’s, the arbitrator. She has long red hair and block glasses. STAN LEE What did I want? I wanted to write the Great American Novel. EILEEN And what happened? STAN LEE I lost track of time. EILEEN Mr. Lieber, Let’s talk about Kirby. STAN LEE My name is Stan Lee. EILEEN Excuse me? STAN LEE My name isn’t Stanley Lieber. It’s Stan Lee. 2. EILEEN (looking back at the documents) It says here -- STAN LEE My name was legally changed last month. EILEEN I apologize for the confusion Mr... (catches herself) Lee. So, Kirby. STAN LEE I haven’t seen Jack Kirby in twenty years. What would I have to say? EILEEN Many would argue that you knew him better than anyone else. -
